Wasteland 2 and Shovel Knight joining Xbox One's ID@Xbox program

A number of new indie games have been confirmed for Xbox One, including the successfully Kickstarted Wasteland 2.

Also in the line-up are Yacht Club Games' Shovel Knight and Bedlam, a currently Early Access game based on the Christopher Brookmyre book of the same name. There's also a free-to-play Magic game in the form of Magic Duels: origins.

The list also includes a number of titles previously confirmed for the platform, including Goat Simulator, Mighty No.9, LA Cops, Cuphead and MOBA title Smite.

At GDC last year, we debuted some of the first ID@Xbox games making their way to Xbox One,” the company said. A year later, the response from independent developers to the program that enables them to self-publish their games on Xbox One has been both humbling and awesome. Dozens of games have shipped via ID@Xbox, and there are hundreds more in development.

More than 1,000 studios across the globe are creating games using ID@Xbox development kits, and we're shipping more kits weekly.”

Here's the new list:
